Mt Isa Mines Rotary Rodeo 2017...

So a few weekends ago (11th-13th August) we went to the Mount Isa Mines Rotary Rodeo, this rodeo attracts more than 20000 people and is the largest annual rodeo event in the southern hemisphere, WOOHOOOOO, it was HUGE and a lot of rodeo FUN was had, we loved it...I would so go again, I'm thinking about going next year for the 60th year...it really was a great experience...YEEHAAW!
Check out the Cowgirl and Cowboy...

Our Cowgirls enjoying the show...
The Mount Isa Mines Rotary Rodeo is part of the Australian Outback, where the Australian outback meets the grit of a mining town, east meets west and man meets beast, Hahaha! The rodeo was pretty much non-stop rodeo action with bull riding, saddle bronc, bareback bronc, rope & tie, steer wresting, team roping, barrel racing, breakaway roping.
The rodeo was also full of food vans, rides galore (pretty much every ride that was at the Cloncurry show was at the rodeo), market stalls selling a whole lot of cowboy gear, awesome country music bands...Look there was sooo much there, if your going to go to a rodeo then I reckon the Mt Isa Rotary Rodeo would be one of the BEST ones to go to...Might see you there next time, you never know 😉
                             
My HOT Cowboy!
Me and My Cowgirls...
We had such a GREAT night at the Mt Isa Rodeo. 
All the animals were fine and well looked after, can't say that for the humans many were beaten and copped a broken bone or two, however, they know what they are getting themselves into.

The rodeo was a whole lot of outback FUN, YEEHAAWWW...I hope to go again some day, I'm sure we will!
Hope all is well in your world xo
Take Care,
